Power System Studies on ETAP (Learning Note)

Last update: 13/May/2026 by Di Wang

This page covers my learning note of ETAP, it contains the content of my hands on experience on designing and building power system as well as performing the related studies and analysis. And some studies also contain both manual and ETAP calculation.

The learning resource is from: Course: Ultimate ETAP Power System Analysis For Electrical Engineer | Udemy

The bullet points of learning outcome are outlined as below:

Power system one line drawing on ETAP
Transformer rating sizing
Cable configuration and sizing based on standards such as IEC 60287
Power flow analysis
Voltage drop analysis
Short circuit study (IEC 60909 & IEC 61363)
Arc flash study (IEEE 1584)
Power system transient stability study
Harmonic study (generation and elimination) based on IEEE standard
Power system protection and coordination
- Over Current Relay (OCR) and Current Transformer Ratio (CTR) design
- Practice applying other relays such as: differential relay, voltage relay, directional overcurrent relay, and distance relay
- circuit breaker configuration and sizing
Grid connected hybrid system design (WTG and PV)
Power factor correction through optimum capacitor bank selection
